New on the Westlaw Study Aid Subscription, Summer 2022

Thirty-three West Academic study aid titles have been added or updated as of the midway point of 2022. *


Two of the newer series of West Academic study aids are described below:

West Academic Office Hours Series

The West Academic Office Hours Series is a collection of short audio and video tracks where professors answer students’ most frequently asked office hour questions. With clear and easy-to-understand explanations, these professors will help students reach that “light-bulb” moment of comprehension, just as they have with their own students in their own offices.

Exam Pro

Exam Pro objective titles now offer students interactive multiple-choice practice questions in 12 primary law school subjects. Students will immediately see whether their answer is correct, along with a detailed explanation of why the correct answer is the best answer.

Elgar Advanced Introductions, Fall 2023

The Law Library subscribes to the Edward Elgar Advanced Introductions series of publications. 

These titles are stimulating and thoughtful introductions to major fields in Law, expertly written by the world's leading scholars.

Topics range from international, comparative, to U.S. specific. Examples include: Contract Law, Cybersecurity Law and Artificial Intelligence, Environmental Law, Mental Health Law, Space Law and U.S. Securities Law.
